Socialite Bettina Anderson was seen seated directly behind Donald Trump Jr. and his fiancée, Kimberly Guilfoyle, during the recent Republican National Convention, as reported by *Page Six*.
Last week, *The Daily Mail* reported that Don Jr. was spotted getting cozy with Anderson, including allegedly “locking lips,” during a brunch at Honor Bar in Palm Beach. The encounter has since become the “talk of the town.”
The tabloid also released additional photos of Anderson and Don Jr. attending a party in Jupiter, Florida, last month, an event that Guilfoyle reportedly did not attend.
In mid-July, Anderson, 37, was photographed seated behind Don Jr. and Guilfoyle at the GOP convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She was seen applauding in a glamorous red outfit during the Wednesday night event, according to *Page Six*.
Anderson was also spotted chatting with Don Jr.’s ex-wife, Vanessa Trump, 46, with sources confirming the two are close friends. It’s reported that Anderson attended the event alongside Vanessa, and in several photos, they were seated next to each other near other members of the Trump family.
Anderson can even be seen in the background of a photo posted by Don Jr. on Instagram, where he is pictured with Hulk Hogan at the convention.
A GOP insider clarified that Anderson’s seat was “open” and “not assigned.”
Meanwhile, speculation continues in Palm Beach about the state of Don Jr. and Guilfoyle’s relationship, with some claiming they’re on shaky ground, while others insist the couple is stronger than ever. The two are scheduled to appear together at a Texas conservative youth conference on Friday.
Trump allies have dismissed the brunch photos with Anderson as part of an exaggerated smear campaign targeting Don Jr. Both sides have emphasized that Anderson remains a close friend of Vanessa Trump.
